Top 5 Sundays

Top 5 Sundays is a weekly blog meme created by Larissa at Larissa's Bookish Life.

Here's a little info about the meme taken from Larissa's blog:

Every Sunday I will post a TOP 5 list on the blog. It can be about anything and every week I'll have a new theme {You can vote on next week’s theme on my left sidebar!} and I will ad the Mr.Linky bellow the post so you can do a list with the theme and add you link to it.

Rules:
1 - Write a post listing your TOP 5 choices within the theme I chose (or was chosen on a poll) for the week.
2 - Mention this Blog on the post and link back to it.
3 - Fell free to use the Feature's image (there is a smaller size version of it bellow)
4 - After you've finished your post, add you link (of the post, not your blog's main page) to the Mr.Linky at the end of that week's post.
5 – If you don’t have a blog to post, just leave your list in the comments =)

This week's topic is: FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2011...SO FAR!!

*in no particular order

The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter
One that's hit or miss for some readers, but I loved it! I love Greek Mythology, so this was right up my alley!

Dark Descendant by Jenna Black
Another Greek Mythology book! Totally loved it! Jenna has a KA series that will most definitely stick too!!

Darkness Becomes Her by Kelly Keaton
Okay, the last Greek Mythology book, I swear!! But this was another YA debut that I just loved!

This was probably one of my first dystopian type novels. I guess you could call it dystopian at least. Like a UF dystopian. Either way I loved it! Riley was just awesome!

Iron Crowned by Richelle Mead
Totally epic!! This takes the series to places you didn't see coming! At least for me! Loooved it!

My "DUH" Mention (meaning that this was so obviously a fave so far this year that it's doesn't need to be mentioned! But I'm mentioning it anyway. Because I'm a rule breaker too! ;)  )

Bargains and Betrayals by Shannon Delany
Yup! I got to read it early!! Was sooooo psyched! So since I read it already it's a fave for the year!

And now I will stop because I really could go on and on and on!

  1. Great Picks. I still need to read Darkness Becomes Her, Demon Trappers Daughter and Dark Descendant. and Bargains and Betrayals. But I have read the other 2. And they are both great. I have no idea if I could pick only 5 books. Its just too hard.

  4. Jessica,

    I'm surprised by your choice of The Goddess Test. I guess I just have read too many mixed reviews on it. And I've been meaning to read The demon trapper's daughter.

    Happy to know your top picks. :)
